Run Capacitor — 370/440V, Round — manufacturer part number 203018 .

What this part does The run capacitor stores and releases the electrical charge that keeps your compressor and condenser fan motor turning. When it weakens, the motor cannot start or hold speed, which is why a failing capacitor is the single most common air-conditioning failure.

Replace this part if

AC hums but the fan does not spin

Outdoor unit trips the breaker on start-up

Capacitor top is domed, bulging, or leaking

AC starts, runs briefly, then shuts off

Fan spins if you push it with a stick, but not on its own
